Piracy checker
2 minInteractive
Find out who leaked a file that ended up somewhere it shouldn’t.
The checker
SandboxThe real tool at Dashboard › Piracy check takes a PDF upload instead of a pick.
Which copy leaked?
Every PDF a buyer downloads from Kreato gets a tiny invisible mark baked into it — you can’t see it, but it ties that exact copy to that exact buyer.
Someone posts your paid guide in a Telegram group. You download that leaked copy, drop it into the Piracy checker, and it tells you which buyer’s copy it was.
The mark survives printing, re-saving, and “remove metadata” tools, so a leaker usually can’t strip it out without knowing it’s there.
How the mark works
Three steps, all automatic.
1Buyer paysA unique code for that order is created.
2File is stampedThe code is written into the PDF as a faint, near-invisible text layer on every page.
3You scan a leakThe checker reads the code back and looks up who that order belonged to.
Try it in the sandbox
Pick a “leaked” copy and scan it.
- 1Choose one of the buyer copies — that’s the file that got leaked.
- 2Press Scan this file.
- 3See the checker name the buyer. Then try the clean copy to see a no-match.
What to do with a match
The checker gives you the buyer’s email and order details — enough to send a firm reminder that sharing paid files breaks the terms. It doesn’t punish anyone automatically; what happens next is your call.Quick answers
